Trump sanctions Iranian metals, Tehran's largest non-petroleum-related sources of export revenue
WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump on Wednesday ordered new sanctions placed on Iranian metals, Tehran's largest non-petroleum-related sources of export revenue.
Trump added that Tehran"can expect further actions unless it fundamentally alters its conduct" and said that he looks forward to"meeting with the leaders of Iran in order to work out an agreement and, very importantly, taking steps to give Iran the future it deserves." Brian Hook, the State Department's Iran special envoy, said Wednesday during a briefing that the U.S. would not grant sanction waivers to any countries buying Iranian oil.
